Episode notes
Dynamics of Change
- The new year symbolizes new beginnings and self-improvement, but resolutions often fail.
- True change needs introspection, addressing inner conflicts, and honoring the unconscious.
Ego Ideal's Influence
- The ego ideal, a fantasy of our best selves, influences our desires.
- This ideal, often based on admired figures, can become a source of frustration if unattainable.
Engage the Unconscious
- Avoid imposing change solely through ego-driven demands ("musturbation").
- Engage the unconscious in a dialogue to address its needs and resistances.
